Registers

Register of Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research

The Guidelines for Using Cells from Established Human Embryonic Stem Cell Lines for Research require that all approved studies using human embryonic stem cell lines are publicly available on a register in electronic form and hard copy.

To obtain a hard copy of the register, please contact the National Co-ordinator. No studies have been approved since the Guidelines were released.

Ethical approval must be sought for each project using a Human Embryonic Stem Cell Line.

However, once a stem cell line has been approved for one research project, an ethics committee does not reconsider issues relating to the origin of that stem cell line for use in another research project.

If you wish to submit an application to use a human embryonic stem cell line, please contact the National Co-ordinator for additional application information.
